Thai singer Palitchoke 'Peck' Ayanaputra was injured in a knife attack at a Bangkok petrol station in the early hours of Sunday, with police arresting a 21-year-old suspect at the scene.
It happened at around 1:30am on Sunday at a petrol station on Ramkhamhaeng Soi 76 in the Hua Mak area of Bang Kapi district.
At the scene, the victim — identified as the well-known male singer — was found with a deep knife wound under his chin, bleeding heavily. Rescue workers gave first aid before transporting him to Kasemrad Hospital for further treatment.
Police caught the suspected attacker, a 21-year-old man from Samut Songkhram province, and recovered a 20-centimetre knife believed to have been used in the assault.
According to police, the attack followed a confrontation between the two men. During questioning, the suspect admitted to stabbing the singer but claimed he acted in self-defence.
Authorities said legal proceedings are underway as the investigation continues.
